Video Summary
This tutorial by Kush Sharma from Creative Pad Media provides a comprehensive guide to swapping clothes using the free Fooocus AI tool, focusing on achieving realistic results without paid software.
Key Strategies and Tools:
- Precise Masking (Photopea): Rather than manual painting in Fooocus, which often causes anatomical errors [03:30], the creator suggests using Photopea (a free Photoshop alternative) to generate a precise black-and-white mask to isolate only the clothing [07:00].
- Method 1: Swapping via Text Prompt: Upload the mask to the inpaint tab and provide a descriptive prompt. To maintain realism, it is best to choose new clothing styles that are structurally similar to the original outfit [14:27].
- Method 2: Using Reference Clothing Photos: To transfer specific clothes from another photo onto a subject, remove the background of the garment image first [18:59]. Then, use the Image Prompt feature and enable “mixing image prompt and inpaint” in Developer Debug Mode to blend the reference with the model [20:33].
- Advanced Refinement:
- Edge Correction: Fix color artifacts or blurry boundaries by painting over the edges and regenerating with an empty prompt [26:17].
- Fixing Anatomy: Correct distorted fingers or skin issues by switching the inpaint method to “Improve Detail” and using a specific prompt like “detailed female hand” [29:31].
- Resource Management: If using the free Google Colab plan, downscale high-resolution images to under 2000 pixels on the long side to prevent the session from crashing [21:53].
